About Brain Tumour Bites

Sarah’s Brain Tumour Bites is a blog dedicated to sharing life with a brain tumour and connecting with others who navigate their own medical challenges. This platform combines personal insights, practical reflections, and shared experiences to foster understanding and build a supportive community for anyone facing health struggles.

I’m Sarah, a 20-year-old psychology student with a bright and bubbly personality and a passion for understanding the human mind. Life has thrown its fair share of challenges my way, but I’ve faced them with resilience and determination, using every experience as an opportunity to grow. I thrive on meeting new people, embracing fresh opportunities, and building meaningful connections. My journey so far has shaped who I am today—driven, independent, and committed to inspiring and supporting others who are navigating their own challenges.

Despite the challenges that come with a long-term health condition, I am dedicated to staying positive and learning from every experience. My goal is to connect with others facing similar challenges and foster a supportive community through this blog.

Why I Created This Blog
Sarah’s Brain Tumour Bites was born out of a desire to share my journey and connect with others who understand the complexities of managing health challenges. The name reflects both the realities of living with a brain tumour and the bite-sized insights and experiences I share to inspire, inform, and connect.

This blog is for anyone navigating health challenges, whether it’s a brain tumour or another condition. It’s also for those seeking insight into the personal and emotional dimensions of resilience, growth, and connection.
